A protocol for adjusting fusion enthalpies as a function of temperature is described. The protocol combines two simple relationships previously proposed to adjust sublimation and vaporization enthalpies with temperature. This new protocol provides improved accuracy and precision relative to the other theoretical and empirical methods tested. Experimental fusion and vaporization enthalpies measu...

In this paper we propose a new imperceptible yellow printer dot watermarking scheme for documents printed on a colour printer. The scheme takes advantage of the imperfections of the human visual system to hide thousands of yellow dots over the entire page. It takes inspiration from the methods used by laser printer manufacturers for printer identification. The novelty of our approach is in prov...

By adopting a citation-based recursive ranking method for patents the evolution of new fields of technology can be traced. Specifically, it is demonstrated that the laser / inkjet printer technology emerged from the recombination of two existing technologies: sequential printing and static image production. The dynamics of the citations coming from the different "precursor" classes illuminates ...

Computer softwares for processing Thai language are developed at National Museum of Ethnology,Osaka,Japan. We use a popular intelligent terminal TEKTRONIX 4051 for inputting and editing,IBM 370 model 138 for KWIC making and sorting, and CANON's laser beam printer for final output. Using these systems,"Kotmai Tra Sam Duang"(the Three Seals Law)which contains many kind of laws and ordinances proc...

Low-cost and straight forward rapid prototyping of flexible microfluidic devices using a desktop digital craft cutter is presented. This rapid prototyping method can consistently achieve microchannels as thin as 200 microm in width and can be used to fabricate three-dimensional (3D) microfluidic devices using only double-sided pressure sensitive adhesive (PSA) tape and laser printer transparenc...
